When WebView2's parent control is hidden, the status bar remains visible

Version
SDK: 87.0.664.66
Runtime: 1.0.664.37

Repro Steps

  1. Embed WebView2 in a WinForm1
  2. Another WinForm2 shows the WinForm1 (modeless)
  3. Move the two forms side by side
  4. WebView2 navigates to a web site that is slow to load
  5. WinForm2 hides the WinForm1 which hides the web page
